lift

Comprehensive, measurement-driven performance optimization for latency, throughput, memory/GC, and tail behavior. Use when the user asks to optimize/speed up, reduce latency (p95/p99), increase throughput/QPS, lower CPU/memory/allocations/GC pauses, profile hot paths, or run a benchmarked perf pass (including JSONL/query-heavy code). Requires before/after measurement on a runnable workload (or an explicit `UNMEASURED` plan) plus a correctness gate. Zig-first CLI iteration where `bench_stats`/`perf_report` are proven first and wrappers are kept in parity.
